Step-by-step: connect HTTPX to NobleProxy

  1. 1

    Pass proxy to Client

    with httpx.Client(proxy='http://user:pass@host:port') as client: ...

  2. 2

    Mount per profile

    One Client per managed profile keeps one identity per profile.

  3. 3

    Verify the exit IP

    client.get('https://api.ipify.org').text shows the endpoint.

  4. 4

    Check protocol

    Match http:// or socks5:// to the endpoint protocol.

Connection check

  1. 1Run the tool's check after saving the proxy
  2. 2Confirm the reported IP is the endpoint, not your home IP
  3. 3Load one real target page and confirm it renders

Working connection

The tool reports the endpoint IP or country and target pages load normally.

Broken connection

Refused connections, timeouts, or repeated credential prompts mean the host, port, username, or password does not match the dashboard exactly.
